As soon as the host finished speaking, many young people couldn’t hold back any longer and started looking for their dance partners.
Maybe, they could even make a match.
The crowd was overwhelming, but the atmosphere was quite magical.
In the midst of the crowd, Qiao Xiaren suddenly bumped into soone.
The person casually steadied her, with distinct knuckles, lightly lifting her with a gentle flick of the wrist before letting go quickly.
Qiao Xiaren slowly stood up to et a pair of deep, beautiful eyes, with a gentle light flowing within them.
Perhaps due to the right atmosphere, the exchange of glances caused a flutter in her heart. Of course, this wasn’t love being born, just a feeling of excitent.
Suddenly, another man bumped into Qiao Xiaren, and the two were lost among the bustling crowd. Qiao Xiaren didn’t realize that this was their second chance encounter.
After returning, Si Yelin noticed his brother was acting strangely today, staring at his own hand in a daze.
Today was the Qixi Lantern Festival, and his brother generally disliked lively scenes. His biggest quirk was not liking won getting too close, simply because he found them annoying.
Unfortunately, their mother had been pushing for marriage recently, nagging in his ear every day, finally persuading his brother to go out, just to clear his mind.
Looking at this expression, could there be a spark?
Did he et a girl at the lantern festival?
Of course, he wouldn’t dare to ask directly.
The following years passed uneventfully. When Qiao Xiaren turned 20, Ye Mohan proposed to her. She still wasn’t sure what marriage ant, but her life, calm as still water, had long eroded her heart.
Ye Mohan was soone she had grown up with, and she didn’t know anyone else in the Capital, so she agreed to marry him.
There was no wedding; they just spent nine yuan and ninety cents to get their marriage certificate.
Technically, as husband and wife, they should share a room.
But Qiao Xiaren felt particularly uneasy about it, as if she couldn’t let go. Strangely, Ye Mohan didn’t press her and was willing to wait, so they continued sleeping separately.
Qiao Xiaren felt a bit moved by his patience.
Life carried on ordinarily, until one day, Qiao Anchu, whom they hadn’t seen for years, suddenly showed up. By then, she was completely different from when she was in Shanshui Town, beautiful and proud.
"Xiaren, I never expected you both to be in the Capital," Qiao Anchu walked over, taking her hand warmly, with an emotion in her eyes that Qiao Xiaren couldn’t comprehend.
"I didn’t expect you and Mohan to be married. I’ve been busy with my own matters these years and didn’t have the ti to inquire about you two. Congratulations on your marriage with Mohan."
Qiao Anchu’s charming and languid voice softly echoed.
"Xiaren, I’ll take care of you both in the future."
Qiao Xiaren felt this senior sister naturally harbored hostility towards her, although unspoken, it wasn’t really unknown to her.
Clearly, everyone only saw this senior sister, yet she seed unsatisfied, wanting to take everything that was hers.
How much did this senior sister hate her? Shouldn’t she be the one who resented her instead?
Qiao Xiaren didn’t speak, just looked straight into her eyes, but couldn’t discern anything definitive.
"Xiaren, we’re having a dance event today, and I’ve already invited Mohan. You should co too."
"Sure."
Based on what she knew of Qiao Anchu, she doubted anything good would co of it, but still nodded in agreent.
She had to find out what Qiao Anchu was really up to.
Qiao Anchu smiled, bidding farewell as she turned and left.
